Summary Draft 1 (Autonomous Vehicles)


In the article “Singapore revs up engines for autonomous vehicle race”, states that Autonomous Vehicles (AV) have been developing around the world and Singapore have made an advancement towards AVs in the recent years to be on par with other countries. Countries such as Germany, are experimenting AVs on actual road conditions with minimum risk on safety whilst Korea are developing AVs to where cars can navigate by itself. Both countries including Singapore perception towards AVs is to provide a safer and effective mobility user environment to the community. For example, Singapore is trying to deploy functional AVs to promote safety such as the commencing of driverless bus in National University of Singapore. However, Singapore development on AVs has yet to reach the standards of other countries as the foreign countries has produced way more advance AVs as compared to Singapore.

    Hey Naz, good effort on summary draft one. I would like to share some of my opinions and thoughts that can help make your summary better:

    1) The initial sentence written is all right. However, I notice you did not utilize some of the critical things that were taught such paraphrasing, summarizing and citation conventions. Its is essential to use them to avoid getting fault by the author for plagiarism.

    2) The examples and secondary supports that you have provided were able to support your main claim, which is excellent.

    3) I spotted a few minor grammar mistakes, here is a link to it, do look into it and change them.

    Hi Naz,

    Good effort on summary draft 1. Here are some pointers I would like to share with you that you can consider when attempting draft 2 :

    1. After quoting the Article, you can mention "Noble (2019) states". This is so as that you credit the writer of the article and who is the person giving the thesis statement.

    2. Certain sentences like Sentence 1 and 2 is a bit long. You can break the sentence into 2 different sentences.

    3. Sentence 2 mentions Germany and Korea. For Sentence 3, you wrote "Both countries including Singapore". Maybe you can consider writing it as "Similar to the countries mentioned above, Singapore ..."

    4. I think you have strong examples linking back to the thesis statement. So you can leverage upon that in your second draft.

    5. Minor Grammar Errors like "effective mobile users" instead of "effective mobility users"

    I have made amendments on the article. You can find it in the link below

    All the best on writing draft 2! Lets try our best and strive to do well! If you have any questions or areas that requires clarification, you know where to find me!

    Yours Sincerely
    Jantzen Lee

Submission #1: Formal Letter

Subject: Self-introduction Dear Mdm Falizah I am Muhammad Nazirul Matin Bin Ya’akob and I am currently studying in my first year of Sustainable Infrastructure Engineering (Building Services) in Singapore Institute of Technology. I graduated with a Diploma in Green Building and Sustainability at Temasek Polytechnic. My interest in engineering has arisen ever since I took Building Information Modelling module in my second year of polytechnic. I was always curious on how buildings were made and how the structure could hold up such heavy weight. Having to come up with design ideas on the building exterior for my project made a huge impact on my passion for engineering. One of the strengths in communication that I had developed through my National Service journey is being a team player. Having myself to communicate effectively and with clarity ensures my team to understand well and having the assurance that they are well prepared on the assigned task. Moreover, interacti

Critical Reflection

Module Learning The goals that I have set myself at the start of the course is to overcome my lacking self-confidence which makes me have the fear on giving out answers of my opinions to group work such as in class activities. Also, my other goal was to improve my communication skills to help me in the workforce in the near future. For my self-confidence, I managed to improve it to a certain extent. At times, even though I am unsure on whether my answer is wrong or correct, I volunteer myself to give out my opinion to my group members for in class activity and project to boost up my self-confidence. However, there are still times where I find it difficult to voice out my answers as I still got that fear inside me where I feel that my answers are incorrect. For communication skills, I feel that I have improve a lot on it as previously, my English vocabulary was not as good which makes it difficult for me to speak in proper sentences. With the assignments and tasks that were done for
